LIBERTY and EQUALITY! From the American Minerva. IN the paragraph we have published from the Aurora, the Editor of that paper mentions ft as a remarkable thing that those who call themselves the mo derates in the National Convention, ate the only peifons who now call out for blood. j This however is not half so remarka ble, as that any American of ordinary erudition should be futprifed at the fa<£l. The history of Europe from the foun dation of the firft Greek republic to this day, contains one tifTue of similar facts. Mr. Adams's defence is little more than a history of limilar fa<3s, and an cxpofition of the caufesand princi ples thai gave rife to them.

PARIS, December j-y. We may at lalt hope that ere long tranquility will be restored in all the diltnCts of the unhappy department of La Vendee, which for the lalt two years has been infedted with the venomous Wreath of aristocracy, and ravaged by all the fui its of fanaticifm, let loose by pricfts, in order to induce a credulous and igi.orant people to revenge the caufc of a blood thirlty idol in the hearts of their countrymen. The general amnesty in favour of the rebels does honour to the policy and wifdorp of the National Convention. The republicans are ready to receive with open arms those deluded French' men who return to the llandard of li berty : they will forget the cruelties, the horrors committed by the Catholic army againlt the faithful inhabitants of those cantons, againlt every patriot they met with : they will never mention that the Vendeans were th« most cruel, the moil implacable, the molt dangerous enemy of the republic ; nor remember that those deluded Frenchmen had themselves begun the cruel war of ex termination by proclaiming folcmnly that they would not lay down their arms till loyalty was rellored, and all the repuSlicans immolated on the altars of sacrilegious priellcraft. But, at the fame time, the good citizens think it but just to treat those pure and zealous patriots who (hed their blood in defend ing the lepuhlic against the rage of aristocracy and fanaticifm, at lead with as much indulgence as the deluded in habitants of Vendee, whose avowed delign was to deprive all their country men of the right they had so dearly obtained. If some men, who are con tinually communicating new particulars concerning the honid tnaflaeres of Nantes, did not design to brand the re publicans in general with the crimes of individual* ; if they did not wi(h to re : vile the cause of liberty, and defend that of royalty ; why don't they also ; make mention of the enormous ctuel j ties committed by the brigands at Ma- ' checoul, Cholet, ClilTon, &c. ? or why do not they draw a veil over the cruel ties committed on both fides? for the monsters who stained th« republican ! name by the attrocities they were guilty of, the generals who burnt the villages in la Vendee, and the drowners of Nantes, aie already condemned, or a wait their judgment in prison. The members of the famous revolu tionary committee of Nantes have been again incarcerated. An extraordinary courier was dispatched with this news to the Western departments, where the report of the acquittal of those mon-1 (lers might have given rife to new dis asters, and destroyed the beneficial effedfc of the amnesty allowed by the Conven tion. UNITED STATES. NEW-YORK, March, jB. Communication. On Friday last. a Salrnon, weighing was fold in our market for 23 dollars. If the sweetness of this fifli was adequate to the sum paid for it, it tnuft have been extremely grateful to the t»jte—even to mention this delicious morse), if accompanied with a bot tle of Tokay, i« enough to inundate the m ° u ' ,° l a * lthe Epicurian Gents within whose heaving it may come. Upon such DEAR, luxurious fare, who would not vAli to expand their corporation* ? ON the 4th irift. there was a general meeting of theTobacconifts of Phi] a . at the White Swan Tave. n , Raee Street : where after an elegant flipper, the following Toasts were drank with general applause. I. The PrefiHent of the United S'ates—may he reeommend a speedy repeal of theexilling Excise Laws, and reject in future all which may partake of their nature. 2. All friends in Congress. 2. May the Patriotic Minority of the late Congress, who resisted excise be enereafed to a majority iu tne next, I and may they repeal all Excise laws. 4. The Constitution of the United States, and the equal rights which it evidently contemplates, may they cease to be perveited, as is afTuredly the cafe when a manufacturer of fluff is obliged to pay two thousand two hundred and forty dollars per annum for one mill. 5. The Congress of 1774, de clared that excises were the horror of 6. Mr. Madison— may he find a mKjority who will adopt his ways »nd means for payment of the Nationaldebt without having recourse to partial tax ation. ' J. The Revolution of France, and confufion to the prompters ofExcife. 8. Ihe Assembly of Pennfylvanie of 1791, who resolved so justly againlt exciles of all kinds—May theii virtuous sentiments be indelibly impreffcd on the minds of all freeman. IC. 7he trade and its customer—— May the latter be speedily relieved from the impositions ofescife, and the for mer from being gatherers of so adieu t a tax. 11. The mechanics and Manufactu rers of America—May they never feel the (hackles of an excifc fyllem. The Tobacco planters—May their rights never be infringed. 13* May the other citizens of Ame rica inform their Representatives in the next Congress, as the tobacconilts of Philadelphia informed their reprefenta tives in the lalt one, that they were rea dy to pay their proportion of the nation al debt, and ha*ve done ivith it. 14. May the chairman of the com mittee of ways and means who bronght forward the excise upon fnufF never have a future opportunity to exert his talents in that capacity. 15. General Jackson, whodecla red that were he to fit forty years in Congress he would never vote for an excifc. From Sir fennfyhania Herald. Mr. Edie, ENCLOSED you receive the taafls irf the tobacconists of Philadelphia I tried to set them to music in a varie ty of ways: firft to the tune of the anthem called M The tgtbacco leaf spiri tualized," with the chorus of " Thus think and smoke. tobacco," but that would rtot do. I then tried {« Sfcwncy lend mi; the loan of your mull," but I could not make them jingle. Next I j endeavored to set them to " - that M'Artec," here again all was : ; c«rd—laft of all I afikyed to put thei , unifen with the old excise song of •' Boge here and fcratchum then " My dad uas in the rebellion;' j Not a verse would 1 hime. i threw a my pen, and was about to accitfc* m< of liupidity, when I recollected' fiieud Pindar's observation, " Verse mull be dull on fubjeft:* {j damu'd diy." So 1 determined te fee what cpult done in prose. Ihe tii It thing that strikes me is 1 u the poor worn out word Excise is 1 eight times in fourteen Toads, f. ;r e ninth taalt is wanting. It is is in gant to use the fame word so „ft er so fliort a piece, but there is » m; in some words, foi instance in the wi dt Prejlo begone in Legerdemain trie 5 although in truth this fame Exi;' means nothing more, according to 3 derivation, than a part cut off for , , e use of government. In their 7th Toast, why in the o; e of coiifiitency, do these U'Lite S% people couple the revolution of Fra -c with this harmless word? Pope fomethinjr like it in the line " Now fees a Bubble burst and 1 a World." But Young has it better, in fpeakin- ,-f the head of Kouli Khan, kipt by' Makeis as a sign : ; " Illustrious mark where Pins r■ t to be fold." So in their 7th Toad the French revo lution ushers in the Exciie. It seems The Prefulcnt is a Toast If on condirion that he recommends a repeal of all pad law*, !! which are dTiagreeable the Tobacconids : that is model). They give us Mr. iviih condition—with his tvays and mrctns—-— for my part J don't know what hem, . u by some of his wnyt ; but of one th lam sure, that even if " his tvnys e **ajt of pleasantness," they have it lately been by any meant " path* of peace." As to Genera! Jackson retaining his opinion for forty yeais, the feme reply may be made to this which was eve given to a person who bonded he w s «. man of fortune—yes, cried a wag, bii" " that's neither here nor there." In the 4th toad ihey complain of the hardship of paying—in the 10th of .ga thering the tax. But positively this pinch and quid iuibui is toe bad—lt's too dry, ere 6 for prose: What, (ball we be deaftn'd with all this noiftv wur Tobacco and Snuff are a little better catted. Tho' volumes in place of lea -eg of such Toads should be printed. I think a Tbaft given by the Tobacc i nifts of this place some time ago, w >11 apply to them all. " May the leaves of Antifrderali m be twilled together, and end in a pus."

Vv'e are here in the midst of war—the Comman dant at Gsudalojjpe has threatened. Us—But I have heard the threatened live long." Mr. Editor, COMPLAINTS have long been made bf the Inhabitants of Kentucky and the Inter ■ or country of the bad Gun-Powder procured from the magazine of this State for want of its being fubje&ed to Infpedion—it has he» found scarce potent enough to fend the I ul out of a rifle sixty yards, while the battle powder furnilhed the hostile Indians it fu ' - cient in ftrengih to kill at twice the diftan .

On Friday morning lad, departed tr,i* life, after a short illness, Nathan Pawl; : Efq High Sheriff of the County ©f Mo it gomery. Of this much lamented branch of a very old and refpe<ftable Family, it may be justly said, that he invariably pursued the path of moral re&itude, and never deviated frcr* the ftri& line of truth and honor.
